Tokenized Real Assets Progress Despite Crypto Pullback

Almost all data confirms it: the crypto market has been slowing down for a few weeks now. Analysts nevertheless highlight a striking fact: tokenized real assets seem to be advancing. A dynamic that shows a strategic reallocation of capital within the crypto ecosystem. We tell you more in the paragraphs that follow.

Over One Billion Dollars Injected in 2026

It could well be that some predictions about tokenized real assets have proven correct. According to data, the capitalization of tokenized US Treasurys is 8.9 billion dollars as of January 1, 2026. At the time of writing this article, it stands at 10.8 billion dollars.

According to data, one player plays a key role in this expansion. It is BlackRock’s tokenized fund: the USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL). It now shows a capitalization exceeding 1.2 billion dollars.
